Comment (by fbissey):

 Well the corresponding gentoo bug is
 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=545114 since the same dev opened
 and closed it, I would say they very much have tested upstream patch.

 I'll have to say I like yours better, it feels more comprehensible. But
 upstream will probably stick to its own fix.

 Current version of ncurses in sage is a dev version from upstream
 (available at ftp://invisible-island.net/ncurses/current/ the one we have
 is old enough to be off the list) may be we should just upgrade to one of
 the latest dev version? Jean-Pierre Flori did the last upgrade may be he
 has an opinion on the process?
